At least for this cycle. I already noticed the duplication and sent Andrew a separate note.. It will be best if most of the things touching mm/hmm.c go to hmm.git to avoid conflicts for Linus. > We have also applied the two patches to our internal tree which is > currently based on 5.2-rc1 so we can make progress. Makes sense, this is is also why this shared tree should be very helpful.. I intend to run it as a clean and stable non-rebasing tree, ah probably starting tomorrow since I see there is still another fixup. :) > Alex, I think merging hmm would be an extra step every time you rebase > amd-staging-drm-next.

I'm not sure what the workflow the amd tree uses, but.. Broadly: If the AMD tree is rebasing then likely you can simply rebase your AMD tree on top of hmm.git (or maybe hmm.git merge'd into DRM). Most likely we will want to send a PR for hmm.git to main DRM tree prior to merging AMD's tree, but I'm also rather relying on DRM folks to help build the workflow they want in their world.. There are quite a few options depending on people's preferences and workflow.
